Race X Lite Blade VR-C Road Handlebar

Details

Bontrager's Race X Lite Blade VR-C Road Handlebar is hand-made from OCLV carbon for superior strength and stiffness, and super-low weight. Plus, the tops are shaped ergonomically for additional comfort and support. You'll also appreciate Bontrager's Compact Variable Radius bend for comfort, control and for forearm clearance when sprinting and climbing in the drops. There are also etched lines that make lever positioning a breeze.

Which Reach and Drop you prefer depends on your hand size, arm length and riding style. If you like what you're riding, simply match it as closely as possible. In general, deeper drops and longer reaches are appropriate for riders with long arms and large hands while narrow drops and short reaches fit smaller riders. Handlebar Width is related to shoulder width. Riders usually prefer a handlebar width equal to the measurement between their shoulder blades, or slightly wider if they climb a lot or ride fast and hard.
